RVA Mag: Unconventional Art Opening at Richmond Moy Yat Kung Fu

In conjunction with the 24th anniversary of the Richmond Moy Yat Kung Fu Academy, the school hosted an art opening featuring works by Grandmaster Moy Yat and Kung Fu student artists. RVA Mag covered the event, publishing this article, with photos. Excerpt below.

Martial art creates a refinement of human motion that trains the mind and develops an automatic protective instinct. It is the pursuit of freedom and harmony with others that drive the martial artist to practice, affecting positive change in their self and their environment. The combat training of the Ving Tsun system enables the human body to develop a centerline and the ability to navigate through obstacles and opposing forces. The centerline is a guiding principal, and core to the practice of forms and two person exercises. Students begin studying the symmetry of the human body and develop a visual and graphical means of understanding different motions.

Art from the cover of Grandmaster Moy Yat’s book, Kuen Kuit, the collection of Ving Tsun (wing chun) idioms with English translation.
